Council Member Chris Banks inquires about the selection process for carters in each commercial waste zone, focusing on fairness and equity. Assistant Commissioner Frank Marshall explains the Request for Proposal (RFP) process and the evaluation criteria used.
- An RFP was issued and evaluated by a committee based on three main criteria.
- The criteria included pricing (40%), capacity and operations, and compliance (safety).
- Scores were compiled based on these factors to award the contracts.
